Hi so I’m a little confused by the FAFSA websites explanation on adding more than 10 schools. When I remove a college from my list to add a different one does that mean I can no longer receive the aid/loan for that school? If anyone can explain it to me I’d be very thankful.
No, you put the first 10 on the list, and then submit. Wait a few days for that to process, then go back into your form and ‘edit’ it by taking some of those off and adding the extra schools, then submit again.
If you make any substantive adjustments, you have to resubmit to the first 10, and then to the process to add more schools by removing some again. The schools on the filing get the info on the application when you submit it. They do not get updates the YOU change unless they are on the list. I don’t know who gets the updates if the school makes a change. That’s one reason it is tricky to have more than 10 schools as you have to keep updating and changing them all.
